Universe Sandbox ² is the long-awaited sequel to the original Universe Sandbox
Universe Sandbox ² is a physics-based space simulator that lets you create, destroy and interact on an unimaginable scale. It brings together the real-time interactions of gravity, climate, collisions and materials to reveal the beauty of our universe and the fragility of our planet. Universe Sandbox² includes a desktop version and a new VR mode with HTC Vive support.
Collide with planets and stars
This is a free, automatic update. Simulate a GravityN body simulation at almost any speed using Newtonian mechanics. Real science, real physics, no supercomputer required.
Epic, unbelievable collisions of massive planetary bodies
ClimateWatch’s model of Earth’s sea ice grows and shrinks with the seasons due to Earth’s tilt: change the tilt and change the seasons. Or move Earth away from the sun and freeze the entire planet. Learn more…Terraform Planets Add carbon dioxide to a planet’s atmosphere to warm it up.
Then add water
deform surfaces. Hit planets with asteroids and comets, leaving huge, molten craters. Supernova Star Make a star evolve by increasing its age or mass, then watch the supernova evolve.
Material System – build planets out of hydrogen, iron, rock, and water Solar Flares and Contrails Procedurally generated stars and planets Pulsars Black holes that bend light Dark matter
